Description

Phragmipedium Fritz Schomburg

Name: Phragmipedium Fritz Schomburg

Etymology: The genus name Phragmipedium is derived from the Greek phragma ("partition, dividing wall") and pedion ("shoe") and refers to the septum in the ovary and the slipper-shaped lip. The grex name Fritz Schomburg honors Fritz Schomburg, who was involved in the development and cultivation of this hybrid.

Registration: The hybrid was registered with the Royal Horticultural Society in 2007.

Origin / Breeding: Primary hybrid from Phragmipedium kovachii × Phragmipedium besseae. It was bred by Alfredo Manrique and registered by Piping Rock Orchids.

Description & Care: Vigorous Phragmipedium hybrid with large, striking flowers in shades of red to purple and the typical slipper of the genus. We keep it evenly moist, with good air circulation and bright, indirect light. The potting medium should not dry out completely. We cultivate it at approximately 15–29 °C.
